Automatically fill in the BCC field when I REPLY to ALL messages.

[Mr.Enigmatic]

I have worked in Oulook 2003 on a desktop PC for years. Now I also have
to work on a Notebook PC. Whenever I send an email from my notebook, I
have to manually fill in my own email address in the BCC field, so I
get a copy of it on my desktop PC.

Is there any way to automatically have the BCC field filled in with my
own email address every time I reply to an email?

Is there some better way to keep two computers synchronized? Swapping
Outlook .pst files every day would be ridiculous.

I can't believe I am the only person with two computers -- there must
be a clever solution!

The sample code at http://www.outlookcode.com/d/code/autobcc.htm shows how to add a Bcc recipient using the Application.ItemSend event in Outlook VBA.

See http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/sync.htm for sync ideas.

[Mr.Enigmatic]

Thank you for that reply.

I tried the sample code, it does NOT work. Perhaps that is because it
says it is for Outlook 2000, and I am using Outlook 2003. Any idea how
to update the code?

There seem to be a number of suggestions to try on slipstick.com. I
will try to report back if any really work.

Thanx!!

The code is suitable for every version of Outlook that supports VBA. Does other VBA code run? Did you check your macro security setting in Tools | Macro | Security?
